I’ve heard that the Galaxy S 2 has problems with running Dindy, but unfortunately have never had the chance to debug it on that phone (for that I need someone to lend me his/her phone to attach to my computer and see what’s going on.)

Also, lately I’ve had no time to invest in Dindy, so this issue will remain unsolved for the foreseeable future.

I’m sorry that I don’t have a better answer for you. I will gladly refund your purchase if you’d like me to.

Thanks for writing me about it.

I purchased Dindy when the Nexus One came out and it worked great.

I completelty forgot about it till recently and now i am using a Galaxy S 2 on Android 2.3.6 and i install and set up the app but it doesn’t work, no SMS reply and no ringing on second call.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Dušan.

Thank you very much for notifying me about this issue and for the kind words.

Dindy is not really under active development anymore, but in the upcoming days I will try to find out whether this is a Dindy issue or a change that was made in Locale and now requires Dindy to change too. If possible, I will make the change and post an update. I just can’t really commit to a date right now.

Thanks again,
Amit

I love your app. and have used it with Locale successfully for ages. But recently I upgraded locale and dindy and now locale no longer controls dindy.

I can use dindy stand alone. I tried deleting and re-adding all my dindy settings in locale, but it didn’t work.

Any ideas?

Thank you very much for the kind words and for writing me. I’m glad to hear Dindy is (generally) working well for you.

As for the reboot issue: I realize that your phone reboots unexpectedly, but Dindy requires being stopped before the phone is shut down. The thing is that there is nothing I can do about it even if I wanted to. Since these reboots are not orderly – Dindy doesn’t get a notification that the phone is being rebooted and so it cannot revert sound and vibration back to the settings that existed before it was started.

I’m sorry that I can’t do much more about this, and I’m also surprised an update hasn’t been issued by Samsung to solve this problem.

You work is amazing!! None of other app can do what you are bringing with Dindy, I’m so happy having found it !

Actually, I have the same problem than YDG. I don’t use any task manager, but I noticed that when Dindy is running and the phone has rebooted, Dindy will affect the settings of the phone: it will loose the vibrations on notifications (SMS/MMS, apps, etc… but not phone call) permanently. Until using Easy Profiles (the only one profile manager able to control the “vibration on notification ON/OFF”) or Sound Manager as YDG says, to recover the vibrations on notifications.

This is a real problem for some Samsung phones that automatically and randomly reboot sometime (problems of RAM, Android version, etc.):

This is happening to me during the night, after what I’m loosing my vibrations.

As I’m a real fan of your Dindy app and cannot use something else, I really wish to find an issue to this problem … :-)

Thanks again Amit !

First, thank you very much for the kind words.

As for the issue when the phone stays silent even after you stop Dindy – this might mean that Dindy is killed while running. If you’re using any task manager – please try to exemt Dindy from being killed. If this is not the case (so you don’t have any task managers installed) I recommend you stop using Dindy because if Dindy crashes in the background this may mean that you will miss important calls.

Thank you again for the app.

First, thank you very much for the feedback. It’s nice to get good feedback once in a while :)

You asked what “Dindy’s behavior for mobile contacts without an SMS reply” means. This option is available for people who are not known mobile callers/texters and it means that Dindy will behave as if the person is a mobile caller or texter but won’t send the SMS reply after the first event. So, for example, if the same person calls you twice then Dindy will ring on the second time (assuming that this is what you wanted Dindy to do) even though the person didn’t get the SMS after the first call. The same goes for a person who texts you and then calls.

This feature was requested by one of the users and I thought it was a good idea if someone is trying to call you several times from a phone you’re not familiar with.

I hope this clarifies the setting.

Thanks again for writing
